Anyway, after such an early finish and a full afternoon of training I was ready for a relaxing evening with my beloved. He, of course, had other plans … I know, how shocking is that?

Mike was planning to head off for an evening of serious business (for which read fun and frivolity!) with his mates. Talk about bad planning; not only was it a school night but United were playing as well!

Just as well I’d finished early really since Mike is stewarding my biking. He wasn’t outwitted though as in the spirit of the frog image on the home page of my challenge he left the newly acquired Hawk-Eye the Frog to witness and monitor any extra training I might be tempted to indulge in.

He wasn’t wrong either as his absence gave me the opportunity to reach my highest step count of the week. Doubtless, I’ll regret that in the morning but right now it feels good!
